Agricultural Environment Monitoring System | Smart Agriculture Solution | Microclimate Weather Station Integration

In modern large-scale field agriculture and facility agriculture projects, meteorological disasters, pest and disease outbreaks, and soil moisture imbalances have become the main variables restricting the stable and high yield of autumn grain. The NiuBoL agricultural environment monitoring system, with multi-sensor integration and a microclimate weather station as the core, combined with pest monitoring, soil moisture, video inspection and other modules, provides system integrators, IoT solution providers, and agricultural engineering general contractors with a standardized, scalable industrial-grade environmental perception solution, helping projects transition from passive response to active prediction.

NiuBoL has been deeply engaged in the fields of agricultural sensors, automatic weather stations, and smart agriculture IoT since 2012, providing end-to-end industrial-grade solutions from sensors to cloud platforms, and has served multiple large-scale agricultural projects at home and abroad.

Core Architecture and Technical Features of NiuBoL Agricultural Environment Monitoring System

The NiuBoL agricultural environment monitoring system adopts a modular design, with a low-power industrial-grade microclimate weather station as the core, supporting multiple communication protocols such as RS485, Modbus RTU, LoRa, 4G/5G, NB-IoT, and can seamlessly connect to third-party agricultural IoT platforms or cloud control centers.

Typical system components include:

• Agricultural microclimate weather station (core environmental parameter collection)

• Pest monitoring instrument (light attraction + AI image recognition)

• Soil moisture/temperature/electrical conductivity three-parameter sensor

• High-definition night vision camera (optional 4G/5G video transmission)

• Data acquisition gateway (edge computing + local storage)

• Cloud platform or local server (data aggregation, algorithm analysis, API openness)

All devices support IP65 or above protection rating, solar + lithium iron phosphate battery dual power supply solution, suitable for long-term unattended outdoor scenarios.

Agricultural Microclimate Weather Station: The Core of Multi-element Precise Perception

The agricultural microclimate weather station is the perception hub of the entire system, real-time collecting crop canopy and near-surface microclimate elements, providing basic data for pest and disease occurrence models, evapotranspiration calculation, and irrigation decisions.
